of m6.ted gold, the whole mass being of the gross weight of 210 pounds. Even the Carr nugget, which was found in 1852, not far from the 225- ounce one of the Chinaman, weighed close on hundred weight, though only part of it was pure metal. Aus tralia, indeed, seems to be the land of great nuggets.
 California has nothing like this to show. Even Peru has few such sto- ries to tell, while the extremely rich placer of Cariboo, where in one mine the earth thrown up was really richer in gold than in gravel, the specimens found have been of moderate size.
 Most of the richest veins have been brought to light by poor and unedu- cated adventurers. There is not a single instance of one having been found by a trained geologist or the graduate of a mining school. A hunter in Tuolumne county discov- cred rich quartz vein by accidentally chipping off point of the rock while firing at grizzly bear, and in 1885 & miner lit upon an equally valuable lode in Mariposa county by noting that the bullet with which he had killed a midnight robber had struck a spot which sparkled in the moonlight. Another mine was discovered by some men who, in despair oE ever doing much good in California, were on the eve of bidding it goodbye. But be- fore leaving they celebrated their de- parture by a drunken frolic, during which they amused themselves by rolling stones down the hillside. One of these powders broke of project ing ledge of rock, exposing a. vein of quartz so rich as to induce the acci- dental discoverers to remain, and they were we'll rewarded.

SPELLING PEAS.

You fingered on your errand, sir, In busy June's delightful weather; told you dinner was to get, And mother soon would fuss and fret You said: "Werl shell the peas together" Beside me on the step you sat, The sun shone OCT the distant heather, "Your work IS needing you, know," And earnestly bade you go- You laughed and said: wen work to
 gether." And then to work we went, indeed But somehow I've forgotten whether The peas, you know, were scattered so, When mother came and scared us, oh- Sad, did we try one pod together? You just had bent your head to say: "My dear, this pods as tough as leather" And, "sweet peas are the kind for me, I'll sugar these"-you'd stolen three, When mother saw us there together. No more you leave on sunny day, Your hay upon the distant heather; My homely tasks do alone Alas, the happy time has flown, When you and shelled peas together.

The Critics Place m Literature.
James Lane Ailcn, iu tho Forum.

It strikes us as not worse ta stN le the critic parasite on authors than it would be to call the Zoologist para site on animals, the botanist parasite on plants; but they certainly have much to do with the sciences of cool ogy and botany. Here, we submit
 lies real analogy of functions for the critic has to do with the science oi letters. And if the zoologist and thc hotanist do not think they have lowly missions because they respectively exist but through the prior existence of tauna and flora, why should the critic, dear friends, think he Is not in tine world for very much fwcuusc itc author existed before him? Really, did not this author in turn exist only because some one else existed before himl Was he not n parasite also In some little field of human life, and drew he not his sustenancc- thoughts, emotions. knowlcdge-as the cater pillar from his lcaf, nor could have lived day without it2 And if we once commit ourselves to this pcrilotis consideration of dependent functions, who of ns can stand alone? Oh, my miserable hrcthren, do we not all bc- come parasites? But SO long as we do not beat our breasts and iorswcar the world because we had nothing to dc with the creation of our fathers and mothers, SO long may the critic hold up his head and exalt his office. Have the great critical liteiaturcs of Ger many, France, England, had no infu- cnce on their creative litcratures? Have they not added to the knowl- edge and love of art, and aroused, tostered, educated creative faculty?

Discovery of aa Old Morse War-SAip. John s White. IL n. In scribaer's Magazine.
 No object 90 thorougly fascinated me in visit to Norway and Sweden during the summer of 1882 as the splendid example of ancient shipping discovered shortly before at Gokstad, on one of the peninsulas of southern Norway The length from stem to stern over all is 7s feet (s3,S metresl. the keel alone measuring 66 feet colo metresl. The breadth of beam is l6l feet (5.l0 metres) and the depth about feet (i.50 metres.) Oak alone was used in the construction, the body being unpainted, while the stem and stern- posts were decoat,Sl The blanks were laid on over the frame -timbers in our lapstreak style, each overlapping the one below It., and were fastened together with iron bolts riveted and ciinched upon the inside-..clinker- built" as we now call 1t. The planking was lashed to the frames by means of projections. with wicker-like cords, or withes, made from the roots of trees and the seams were calked with hair of cattle spun into cord of strands, and this was not driven into the crcviccs, bui laid in when the planking was put together.
 From this method of construction, as we'll as from tho character of the relics found and the use of the vessel as means of sepultuc, Mir. Nicolay- sen inters that 1t was built during tho later iron age, or between A. D. TOO and 1000. (rhe carly iron age com prises the first seven centuries after the Christian era.) The decorations ofthe trimmings on the brow ,gunwale, and stern- post, the numerous cary ings, both upon the ship and the rel ics, together with the handy use of colors, exhibit very strong influence from Irish decorative art. For in her palmy days, before the beginning of the eighth century, Ireland out. stripped every other country of Europe in miniature painting and the ornamentation of metal and wood, This consideration fixes the date of construction subsequent to A. D. 700.
